Do I need Adobe Reader if I just downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0?

Hi! I just downloaded Acrobat Pro 9.0 and when I try to open a .pdf file in a website, I get the following message, "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running cannot be used to view PDF files in a web browser.  Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required.  Please exit and try again."  When I click "okay", I get the "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" page.
I do have Adobe Reader version 8.1.2 installed on my machine.  Does Acrobat Pro have a built-in reader and should I just un-install it?
Thanks a bunch!

Halp! I've got another issue associated with this...
Now when I go to open a .pdf file, I get a pop-up box that say's the following, "Do you want to save this file or find a program online to open it?".  My button options are FIND, SAVE and CANCEL.
When I click FIND, my only ADOBE option is Adobe Reader.  It doesn't offer Adobe Acrobat.  Why didn't it just open automatically?
AAAARRRGGGHHH!!
Can you help???

    I have just downloaded Adobe Reader but am unable to launch documents as 'license agreement' must first be 'Agreed" ??  Where can I do this?

    Assuming you're on a Mac, you launch Adobe Reader like any other app, from Applications. If there is more than one Adobe Reader shown, start and quit each one in turn.

  • Just downloaded adobe reader X. how do I change setting to open a file as a pdf file instead of word

    Just downloaded adobe X reader   pdf files open as a word doc.  how do I change setting to only open doc as a pdf doc

    Do you mean that MS Word is opening your pdf files? If so, you just need to change your file associations.
    It's easy enough to do but how to do it depends on your operating system.

    Hi MAX22,
    Even though it's your computer but your user account might not have sufficient privileges to install the software.
    Please try the following :
    > Enable the hidden Admin Account on Windows 7 ( Ref :  http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-wi ndows-vista/ )
    Reboot and try installing in the new enabled Admin user account and check.
    Regards,
    Rave

  • I just downloaded adobe reader and can't print a pdf file

    i just downloaded adobe reader and cannot print a pdf file.

    Same or related issue.
    After installing latest updates of Mac Mavericks and Adobe Reader, I can't open pdfs downloaded from the web or print pdfs from the web. Using "export" doesn't help. Same with the print/pdf workaround.
    I uninstalled/reinstalled Reader. I indicated Adobe Reader as my default opener for pdf-type files. No help.
    I'm using Safari.

AcroRd32.exe Error, The instruction at 0x9068675f reference memory at 0x9068675f. The memory could not be written. Click on OK to terminate the program.  2.) Adobe Reader ha stopped working, a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution ia available.

    What is the Reader XI version you installed?
    Does this also happen when you open Reader by itself?  If not, can you try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

    I have a new hp tower running windows 8.1 and have been trying to install the adobe reader.  The installer downloads (1meg) and I choose to run it but it just sits with an empty screen.  I've checked task manager and it takes up memory but does nothing.  After letting it run for 3-4 minutes I kill the task.  What can I do to get the reader installed on this machine?  I've tried using chrome, firefox and explorer and get the same results with each.

    Try the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

  • Flash Player And adobe reader not working and downloads don't work

    I have IE 8 and windows vista and everything has worked great for 2 years until 2 or 3 weeks ago.  At that time my flash player stopped working so I could no longer get videos , streaming stock quotes, weather map loops, etc and when I go to websites that use Flash (i.e. Piaaz Hut) it wouldn't work.  Also, at that same time my adobe reader stopped working properly and I can't view mosy PDF Files.
    I have gone through many of the posts on this forum and have tried many of the fixes, but none have work for me.
    I tried to uninstall the Flash Player, but I didn't use the Adobe uninstaller.
    Whenever I try to update or load the Flash player, a dialog box with the globe tossing papers to the folder appears and then after a few seconds I get the the message that IE can't install_flash_player_ax.exe from fp download.adobe.com, and then a message that says IE was not able to open this internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found.
    In control panel programs I have listed
    Adobe AIR      no size
    Adobe Flash Player 10 active X           no size
    Adobe Reader 9.3     141mb
    Macromedia Shockwave player      no size
    In Tools i have the following add ons and they are all enabled
    Shockwave Flash object 10.0.42.34
    Adobe PDF Link Helper
    Adobe PDF Reader
    Macromedia Shockwave Active X Control 10.1
    As I said I've already attempted a number of the fixes on this forum, but so far no luck.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on what else I might try?
    Thanks

    Ok, I tried to download the firefox browser but IE wouldn't let me download it.  My friend downloaded it from their computer to a flash drive and I loaded it to my computer from the flash drive.  The download of Firefox from the flash drive worked, and now I'm using Firefox & both my adobe flash player and my adobe reader are working just great.
    However, neither the flash player nor the reader are working if I use IE, so I guess I will just have to use Firefox as my browser.
    I'm going to mark my question as answered since I really don't care that I have to use Firefox instead of IE,although I can't understand why it works using Firefox but not using IE.
    Thank you so much for your assistance in walking me step-by-step through this problem until I was able to reach a satisfactory solution.

  • Adobe Reader X won't download

    Hi all,
    I am a Windows XP Home SP3 user with Kaspersky 2011 antivirus software.  I went to the Adobe Reader download page and clicked on the download link, which took me to the "Downloading Adobe Reader" page.  After giving the website permission to download the program, a box came up with a progress bar which had "Installing Adobe Download Manager" written above it.  The progress bar had 5 green dashes that circled through it a couple times before the box disappears.  Adobe Reader X and Adobe Download Manager have not been installed on my computer.  I even tried disabling Kaspersky, but that didn't work either.  The really strange thing is that Adobe Reader X installed just fine on my VAIO laptop, which has Trend Micro antivirus software but is identical to my desktop in every other way.  Can someone help me?

    Try downloading the executable installer without download manager from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
